Romanization
L'ewa's romanization is intentionally simple. Most of the IPA letters keep their letters, but the ones that do not match to Latin letters are listed below:
Pronunciation | Spelling |
---|---|
/j/ | y |
/ɛ/ | e |
/ʃ/ | x |
/ʒ/ | z |
/ʔ/ | ' |
/ʙ̥/ | b |
This is designed to make every letter typeable on a standard US keyboard, as well as mapping as many letters as possible on the home row of a QWERTY keyboard.
